current aptitudes and interests, which may change over time. Use this as one of
several tools for making career decisions, and consider consulting career guidance
experts for more comprehensive advice.
WHAT IS
ASAP ACE 10
The Aptitude and Competency Evaluation (ACE) 10 is a scientific, online aptitude
assessment designed to help Class X students discover suitable academic and career
paths. By evaluating a student's aptitude, interests, and personality traits, ACE 10
provides personalized insights to guide future educational and professional decisions.

Why Take an Assessment?

Success and job satisfaction come when a person pursues a career aligned with their
aptitudes and interests. An assessment helps students:

Identify career fields that match their strengths and personality

Make informed academic choices after Class 10

Without a proper understanding of one’s aptitudes and interests, students may choose a
path that does not align with their strengths, leading to dissatisfaction or limited career
growth.

What Makes ACE 10 Unique?

Unlike general career tests, ACE 10 evaluates a student across multiple dimensions. The
test assesses nine key factors related to aptitude, interest, and personality, making it one
of the most comprehensive career assessment tools for Class X students.

How Does This Assessment Work?

Every career field requires a unique blend of aptitude, interests, and personality traits.
ACE 10:
1. Creates your personal career profile based on test results
2. Matches your profile with different career fields
3. Compares your results to a reference group of students
4. Identifies career clusters best suited to you

Your ACE 10 Results: What You’ll Discover

The result of ACE 10 will give you the following information.
1. Career Clusters That Suit You Best: Career Clusters are groups of occupations
that share similar skill sets. Each cluster is marked by a certain set of knowledge and
skills required for occupations in that cluster. Once suitable career clusters are
identified, students, parents, and teachers can focus on that area and make plans to
obtain the necessary knowledge, competencies, and training for success in it.
ACE 10 categorizes careers into 27 clusters, divided into:
 Primary Clusters (Mainstream career paths based on academic qualifications)
Supplementary Clusters (Career paths based on skill-based qualifications)
Higher-Order Clusters (Broad career options not tied to a specific academic
discipline)

You will receive:

Top 3 primary career clusters that best match your profile

Supplementary and higher-order clusters (if you meet the cut-off score)
Clusters that may not be a good fit for you

2. Best Study Options After Class 10: Based on your results, ACE 10 will suggest
suitable subjects to study after Class 10 to help you achieve your career goals.
3. Key Careers That Match Your Strengths: ACE 10 provides a list of specific
occupations that align with your skills, interests, and personality traits.

choosing another career if circumstances are favorable in the future.
